Roster in flux as Union begin training
Pedro Portal/Miami Herald/TNS United States national team prospect Fafa Picault is visiting the Union. The Union held their first workout as they begin their eighth Major League Soccer season, and there were several developments for a team that last played on Oct. 26 when they were eliminated from the playoff with a 3-1 loss at Toronto.
Midfielders Adam Najem and Fafa Picault attended practice as trialists. Najem is a former star at Akron, where he had 10 goals and 11 assists as a senior in 2015.
The 25-year-old Picault, who has one cap with the U.S. national team, has most recently been playing in Germany for FC St. Pauli of the 2 Bundesliga.
